[06:22:43] <prpplague> Sonicadvance1: most people will setup a nfs share for your work area between your host pc and the target, cross compile on the host pc and drop the resulting binary over into the nfs share

[06:22:55] <prpplague> Sonicadvance1: then you just execute it on the target

[11:13:07] <TheSeven> smspillaz: so everything up to the twl6030 seems to be working...

[11:14:03] <student_> TheSeven : in mfd also we have twl6040 files, Yes i tried to figure out the difference between these two files, but the problem is that both the files have module_init(twl6040_codec_init)

[11:14:15] <student_> TheSeven : so i am not able to understand which actually is the driver file

[11:14:46] <LetoThe2nd> student_: your tree must be whacked, because in mainline there certainly is no twl6040* in mfd.

[11:16:13] <TheSeven> when powering it through USB it doesn't work either?

[11:19:07] <LetoThe2nd> student_: looking into the files suggests that -core does probing, general functions and initialization, -irq does the irq handling, and the one in sound is plain audio handling. :-)

[13:49:27] <chris__> [Froyo] Is anyone having problems with java script in the browser? When I have java script enabled the browser shutdown after a fex seconds. This only happens when there is a internet connection avidable

[15:06:29] <student_> hello...sorry for troubling you guys, i am trying to boot crane board, can anyone suggest me site where i can post my doubts. I tried booting up the crane board but its not happening at all...plz help me

[15:42:08] <student_> @prpplague : thanks for your response....actually i am unable to boot the crane board, i found a couple of groups where they posted that they are also unable to boot the crane board, but none of them posted the solution...a bit worried about booting crane board last couple of days...any suggestion

[15:49:02] <prpplague^3> student_: like i said, try #beagle , since the crane is an off shoot of their product line

[15:49:06] <janimo> Well, I can get the monitor EDID data if I plug it to my laptop (VGA). But I thought the Panda had edid files exposed, that's what I saw on a wikipage dealing with debugging panda/hdmi

[20:04:24] <djc_> does anyone know how to enable openGL hardware acceleration on the board with ubuntu 11.04? I've installed the omap graphics extras, but my program is still reporting very low framerates

[22:03:04] <prpplague> Alison_Chaiken: try restarting the build without -j10 and see if it is a poorly done dependency

[22:03:08] <Alison_Chaiken> Methinks I must do something in files with mydroid/devices/ti/pandaboard that is not described in the instructions, but reading the Makefiles and guessing has not yet produced a working result.

[22:03:58] <Alison_Chaiken> Excellent idea! I take your point. But the result is, alas, the same.

[22:09:51] <riot> whats the best way to speak to an atmega thats supposed to do sensor input? I thought of using rs232. Any better suggestions? I'd need rather high bandwidth, like 400 kHz i2c would offer (where to best connect i2c to?)

[22:11:19] <prpplague> riot: need to explain what you are trying to accomplish a little better. are you connecting a sensor to an atmega and then to something else like a pc?

[22:13:06] <riot> i'll connect lots of sensors (voltage, temperature, windspeed, humidity, 9dof) to an atmega that samples data via i2c/spi and should be connected to the pandaboard. I want to read data from that atmega (preferrably in python, somehow) and send instructions for PWM-Outputs to the same chip.

[22:17:37] <prpplague> tecdroid: you can use uart with an irq for incomming data, however if you need for instance, an irq to be triggered the instance a specific datapoint is available, doing this via uart alone can introduce a lot of delay

[22:18:34] <Alison_Chaiken> prpplague, if you look in mydroid/build/ and subdirs, there are a lot of .mk files. In device/ti/pandaboard there are many identically named .mk files. Some file must have to get linked or copied somewhere, methinks, but I haven't been able to guess which.

[22:18:38] <tecdroid> which is quite normal in an interrupt driven system

[22:19:04] <prpplague> Alison_Chaiken: yea getting setup to do the builds now, making notes as i go

[22:21:44] <prpplague> tecdroid: well based on the information you have given me, you will need to implement a protocol for your specific configuration, which means you will need to have some sort of client and/or driver on the linux side as well as an implementation of the protocol in the avr

[22:24:42] <tecdroid> or.. better, i don't have to implement a kernel space driver

[22:24:55] <prpplague> tecdroid: correct, but you DO have to implement the protocol

[22:25:40] <tecdroid> okay, that's right.. i just don't want to implement some hadware abstraction on the panda board..

[22:26:25] <prpplague> tecdroid: techincally that is what you are doing, just not in kernel space

[22:26:33] <riot> tecdroid: jeedi says: we linewrite from the atmel into rs232 and pump that stream to the pandaboard, linux manages io, i do "open('/dev/ttyS0', 'r')" and am happy with a blabbering stream of sensor data

[22:31:02] <prpplague> riot / tecdroid hehe, you guys are in for some fun, your questions and planning, are extremely common with folks who are trying to integrate microcontrollers to larger systems running an OS

[22:31:53] <prpplague> riot / tecdroid you can do a data stream, but understand that will be polling based, and you have very little margin for error in the data

[22:31:54] <tecdroid> no, i just had one question.. there is a /dev/usart4- however it's named. so riot can talk to my avr

[22:32:13] <ds2> bah...trivial stuff. use what is avialable and stop reinventing the wheel

[22:32:28] <prpplague> tecdroid: depending on the system it will normally be /dev/ttyO3
